Samsung Chromebook Sold In Google Play Store

As it happened, that is Google Play Store is no longer exclusively only for Android devices: Apart from the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 is in the USA now the new Samsung Chromebook sold by Google itself, but the wave of this lauch have been sold out. And temporary google no longer accepting orders for the new Chromebook. If you visit the product site page now you can't see the procuct and you just will see option to sign up for notification or email when the new device is available for sale.

With the renaming of the Android Market in Google Play store was actually already indicate that the Google Store no longer be exclusively for Android apps and devices. Opening up more on books, movies and music was already a step in this direction, the following marks the new Samsung Chromebook: This netbook with Google Chrome OS is now available for $ 249 in the U.S.

It is not entirely absurd that Google has selected the new Chromebook from Samsung, as this with the new features Samsung Exynos 5250 SoC is. Unlike the previous Chromebooks, which were powered by Intel CPUs, it is therefore the first device with Google's OS, which is equipped with an ARM-based processor, and thus based on the same processor architecture, even in the most of Android smartphones and tablets used. Whether the Exynos processor with four Cortex A15 cores, which are actually designed for mobile devices, is sufficient to fuel a laptop with Chrome OS, is worth fighting for - the test of GigaOm , the Samsung Chromebook was slower than The Intel-based predecessors, but by no means unusable.

Whether we will find now even more in future Chromebooks or other non-Android devices in Google Play store, remains to be seen that the first charge Chromebooks is however already sold out, should probably be considered a success, and thus the further opening of the Channel Store for other Google Gadgets nearly possible.
